Trump is the first president to call for school choice, a wide range of programs offering stu-
dents and their families funds to best provide for their educational needs, whether that’s to a
private, school, like Esprit de Corps Center for Learning or a public or charter school etc.
During his recent Whitehouse speech, President Trump pulled on the
heartstrings of the American people by sharing the story of a young
African-American woman, Denisha Merriweather. Merriweather, a
Florida native, failed the third grade twice, and then, after being
pulled out of public school, was placed in a private center for
learning with help from a tax credit scholarship program. At the
private institution, she began to flourish academically, and now
she is the first in her family to graduate from college and as has
now earned a master’s degree in social work.
